THE BLOEMFONTEIN CHILDREN'S CHOIR ARE SINGING IN YORK ON FRIDAY 5TH JULY!

Over the last thirty years, the Bloemfontein Children's Choir has touched the lives of its members and all whom they come into contact with. This amateur children's choir consists of boys and girls from Bloemfontein, South Africa, and surrounding areas, who are between the ages of 8 and 16. Singing is at the heart of what the choir does but it also offers its members a rich and diverse education; enriching their lives, and often their families as well, by means of cultural experiences and the development of essential life skills. The choir perform in South Africa and extensively on tours overseas. They have performed with many famous artists and choirs, have won local and international awards, have performed on radio and television locally and internationally and have been honoured to perform before three of South Africa's Presidents.

In early July 2019, the choir are taking part in the Stirling Bridge International Arts Festival and will be stopping off in York after visits to London and Oxford. The choir will arrive in York on Wednesday 3rd July and leave for Scotland on Saturday 6th July. They are visiting Haxby and Wigginton Methodist Church, Millthorpe School, Scarcroft Primary School, the National Railway Museum and York Minster and singing with Cantar Community Choir at 7.30 on Friday 5th July at Temple Hall at York St. John University. Let me know if you want to come or buy tickets for what will be a very special event!
